STYLES FOR SUMNER DAYS
COOL AND DELICATE FABRICS

Serges aud Bebelges In Popular
Tints--rhe Fayorite shades
from Brown to Gray.
[ooRR.sroxDrxor OF TIE APPEAL


New YORK, May 6.-For the
summer season about to open, the
display of materials for dressmaking
is large and comprehensive one.
The fabrics exhibit the most ex-
quisite weaves and designs, while
the variety is SO great that no lady,
however extensive her wardrobe,
need include therein two dresses of
the same fabric.
The colors with which the season
greets us do not include many new
shades, but the most appropriate OF
those already known to fashion are
shown, among which mode, all the
lighter and most pleasing shades of
brown, gray, from the palest French
gray to the darkest slate tint; hello
trope, term which now implies any
color from a pale lavender to, almost,
a royal purple. Green is very fully
represented in all the fashionable
dress goods, particularly the fine
woolens, the shades in favor being
the dark, rich tint termed "russet, !"
brOwnish shade called eucalyptus"
and several OF the lighter variations
of this popular color. Besides these
acsjou, navy, turquoise and ciel blues
and ecru shades will be in favor,
making an exceedingly attractive list,
In fabrics the finer grades Of wool
en- weaves stand foremost. These
goods are even finer and softer than
they have previously been shown,
and comprise armures, camels hair,
chuddah cloths, and a number of
mixed materials which are techni-
cally known as caunele, mosaique,
diamantine, etc.
Summer serges and debeiges are
likewise seen in most of the popular
tiuts, the former taking prominent
place among the seasenable dress
goods.
Foulards, tussores, satines, gin
CHAINS and lawns, with many kindred
stuffs, are to be worn for lighter and
more airy toilets, these materials
being in some cases trimmed with
velvet.
Checks and stripes are seen with
out number on every hand, aud vel
vet and wool combinations, fancy
mixed fabrics, cassimeres, chamberys,
canvas cloths and Examines will all
occupy hOnOr'd places
A neat street dress observed recent
ly was in dark brown camels hair
cloth. The trimming was of dark
green velvet, of which three cornered
tabs we're laid on either side of the
basque down the front. The collar
and cuffs were also of the velvet.
The basque was fastened down the
front by a row of small spherical
cloth covered buttons, set very close
ly together, and these were continued
down the front of the skirt, on either
side OF them being wide facing Of
green velvet. The space between
these and the facings themselves
formed the center panel of the skirt,
which was laid in wide plaits on each
side to the back drapery, the latter
being light and graceful. There was
no tablier or drapery on the front.

As there are still left few Rights
of dancing and gayety in the city the
above illustration, an evening dress,
will, perhaps, not be deemed i'll
timed. Cream satin and fable in
combination fern the materials of
this toilet, which is trimmed with
lace aud with pearl beads, with which
the front skirt panel is embroidered.
The flowers, worn at the waist and
upon the shoulders, are tea roses.
-
Ersws of all kinds naturally rule
the present season in millinery.
These are shown in considerable va
riety, the shapes being particularly
odd.
One very jauuty shape has low
brim, which turns up on each side,
half way back, at which point, with
a sudden twist, it rises nearly to the
top of the crown. The latter is GOV.
cred with jet beads, applied over lace,
thereby giving an odd, but beautiful
effect. The under side of the brim is
edged with dark brown velvet, and
knot of pale pink ribbon. mingled
gracefully with black lace. form the
garniture on the front of the hat,
which also includes very impossible
bird, perehed in an unnatural atti-
tude upon the side.
Another shape, of very plain brown
straw has low turned up brim all
the way around, covered with sage
green velvet. Three large plumes
are mingled upon the top of the
crown, falling over and concealing
It's sides, the eolorS being mauve and
sage. A velvet bow upon the front
completes the garniture ETA hat
which takes bat little while to
trim, but yields very excellent re-
suit
Au English shape is in gray fancy
straw, trimmed with gray ribbons
and feathers. The brim, which |
slopes from the front, where it
almost disappears, TO the rear, attain
ing there quite a hight, is covered |
10 English pink plush, and feather |
tip nesting among the gray ribbons
on top is Of the same color.
Black stockings are almost uni |
versal for children'5 wear, and are
prescribed for almost any sort Of cos
tune. Where the hosiery is colored
the prevailing tint in the dress
should be reproduced in the stock
ings.

seventeen years of age, killed iteu-
heI Johngqn last Tuesday on the
W,ihourna place in the FORKS
some sever. pr eight milee northeast
Of Grenada. Cobb was brought here
Wednesday and his trial will take
place in the mayors count on the 9th

| moned to appear on that day. The
| version OF the affair, as we have been
! able to collect the facts are abopt as
follows: Reuben Johnson had
some days previous given young
Cobb 9 evepe beating with a stick,
! when another colored man for whom
Cobb was working drove Johnson
away from The boy, Johnson had
| subsequently, pursued Cobb with Il
shotgun, nut was prevented doing
him any harm. \ shGrt while before
the fatal difficulty occurred johnson
cursed Cobb severely and made some
threats about beating him to death.
Cobb was ont choppjng wood when
Johnson, cursing at the highest pitch,
came up to whore the boy was, pick
ed up Il stick aud made for the boy,
who raised his AK and wardcd oil the
blow. by chopping at his assaiiant.
Johnson advanced a little to near
Cobb, when the AK struck him on the
eide Of the head and inflicted a fatal
wound. from which he died in a few
minutes. When Cobb saw what he
had done he dropped his AK, ran into
the house and Began crying. He was
arrested by some ooiGred men John
sons friends and we are told that
had il not been for some old COl0ted
women these men would have hung
the boy dunng the night, SO great was
their INDIGNATION. However, they
spent the night principally IN cnraing
and abusing their shackied prisoner,
and nett morning started with him
to town. BY conservative persons
in the ueighborhood it is be-
Iieved that the boy only intended
keeping the stalwart man otfhim and
that he had no idea OF killing his as

county, and Johnson claimed that he
had circulated evil reports concern

In a Japanese Theatre.

There are two tiers Of boxes, the lower
of which is provided with sliding paper

capable of holding four persons comfort

Japanese theatrical performance COM
mences generally at early dawn and lasts
dozen hours.
The stage occupies the end Of the build
ing from wall to wall. Oddly, the actors
do not make their appearance from the
side or back there are no wings, but strut
along narrow platform over the heads OF
the pit by means of just such boarded
footway as is used by European conJurers.
Faithful to the canon Of no illusion, the
performers stand ready dressed in an open
place off the entrance lobby, where all
who come in may see them; when they
hear their cue they push through knot
Of loiterers and march to the stage along
the platform, acting as they 60. Indeed,
important portions Of scene which de-
mands rapid exit are frequently gone
through upon this narrow footway and
not on the st&.e 1T all; and the effect is
apt to be unintentionally comic, when q

A Sneak ThieFs Dodge.

A new dodge in the workingman in dis
tress line. A keen eyed fellow, with a
most villainous expression, halted me at 2
in the morning in Madison square and de-
manded, civilly enough, if did not want to
buy his coat-which garment he proceeded
to strip of when I stopped him. He was
a bookkeeper out Of job, he said. In
spite of his sinister and forbidding face I
was on the point Of giving him the price
of his lodgings when he gave shout and
started at dead run over grass and seats.
He had caught sight Of an approaching
park policeman. The officer told me he
had halted q number Of persons with the
same plea as he had made to me and the
same offer and had got money from several.
"He's a sneak thief, just down from
Sing Sing" said the officer. Didn't you
notice how short his hair was and how
yellow his complexion9"
Here are signs by which you may know
Sing Sings pensioners, it seems.-Alfred
Trumb!e in New York News.
